[QUOTE="catherinecherub, post: 1093147"] I think the medication you are referring to is Ramipril. This is often prescribed for people with diabetes as it protects the kidneys. I personally think that you are in a state of flux about your blood pressure and the stress is raising your BP when you test. I used to have a home monitor when I was first diagnosed and became obsessed about recording my BP. and a high reading would upset me. I used to dread what the reading would be and this didn't help. Blood pressure is not static and the more you become obsessed about it then the more your readings will fluctuate. If you can sit quietly for a few minutes prior to taking a reading and let your mind drift rather than concentrating on your B.P. then you may find that things improve. 10 factors that can influence blood pressure.
